ISCC 2020 - 25th IEEE Symposium on Computers and Communications (ISCC) 2020

The first IEEE Symposium on Computers and Communications (ISCC) was held in 1995 in
response to the growing interaction between the fields of computers and communications.
ISCC takes place annually, usually in the Mediterranean region, in locations such as Egypt,
Greece, France, Tunisia, Portugal, Spain, Morocco, Italy, and Brazil. In 2020, the Symposium
is going to happen in Rennes, France.
ISCC sessions will include presentations on new research results and tutorials.
Papers describing original work are invited in any of the computer and communications areas
that the Call for Papers considers. Accepted papers will be included in the ISCC 2020
Conference Proceedings, which will be subject to independent peer-review procedures for
quality, and may be eligible for inclusion in the IEEE Xplore® Digital Library. Merit, relevance,
and originality will guide paper acceptance. Best Paper Award and Best Student Paper Awards
will be presented.

and originality will guide paper acceptance. Best Paper Award and Best Student Paper Awards
will be presented.
Review manuscripts should describe original work and should be no more than 7 pages in the
IEEE double column proceedings format including tables, figures and references. Download
manuscript templates for IEEE conference proceedings: https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templa...
Note that accepted papers up to 6 pages will be published with no additional charge. Exceeding
pages will be charged an additional fee. Papers exceeding 7 pages will not be accepted. At least
one author of each accepted paper is required to register to the conference and present the paper.
Only registered and presented papers will be published in the conference proceedings. Accepted
papers will be included in the ISCC 2020 Proceedings and will be submitted for inclusion to IEEE
Xplore. The ISCC Proceedings have been indexed in the past by ISI, dblp and Scopus.
This makes the ISCC conference one of the publication venues with very high visibility and impact
in both Computer and Communications areas.
